Administrative Law Committee Meets

The Administrative Law Committee gathered on March 15, 2013 for their first meeting of the year. Members discussed the potential challenges of Act 559 to the practice of administrative law as Judge Lynn L. Lightfoot led the conversation. Differences between professional board versus state agency hearings and proceedings were also a featured topic at the meeting. Ideas for summer and fall CLEs were being planned, with possible topics ranging from a panel presentation on defending a client from action by a state board or agency and legislative updates on admin law in general and Act 559 which amended the Louisiana DAL for Suspected Drunken Drivers law.
